Does my "recipe" sound like it should achieve the goal though? I appear to be having the same issue as Nabeel below, where the symbolic link is not visible from the WSL side. Was that not your experience, or are we missing a step? If you don't remember, that's okay. I'll try to figure it out and post a solution.
I asked my collegues if he was solving something like this, and he said he's using this script. It will run windows git under /mnt and linux git at other dirs. Meaning it will keep the speed of native git at all directories gist.github.com/jasonboukheir/3fda...
Unfortunately, this does not seem to work either. Even after creating the script, typing git still defaults to linux git. It doesn't see my script. Can you please connect me with your colleague for further inquiry?
Never mind... I just went with a simpler solution. Moved my project to the WSL filesystem (/home//project and lunched VS Code from there. I can now access it as if it was any other VS code workspace, but as it is now on the WSL filesystem, the default WSL git is at normal speed.
Thanks for everything :)

Hi! I would really like to help you, but I'm not using windows anymore :(

Your solution looks good to me.
